Flesh and sprite mayest thou not here understand / as though flesh were only that which pertaineth unto unchastity and the sprite that which inwardly pertaineth to the heart: but Paul calleth flesh here as Christ doth John¹ iij. All that is borne of flesh / that is to wit / the whole man with life / soul / body / wit / will / reason & what soever he is or doth with in and with out / because that these all / & all that is in man / study after the world & the flesh. Call flesh therefore whatsoever (as long as we are with out the sprite of God) we think or speak of God / of faith of good works & of spiritual matters. Call flesh also all works which are done with out grace & with out the working of the sprite / how soever good / holy and spiritual they seem to be / as thou mayst prove by the .v. Chapter unto the Galatians / where Paul numbereth worshipping of idols / ⟨p. ccix⟩witchcraft / envy and hate among the deeds of the flesh / & by the .viij. unto the Romans / where he saith that the law by the reason of the flesh is weak which is not understood of unchastity only / but of all since / & most specially / of unbelief which is a vice most spiritual and ground of all since.

Flesshe and sprite mayste thou not here vnderstōd / as though flesshe were only that which perteyneth vnto vnchastite and the sprite that which inwardly pertayneth to the herte: but Paule calleth flesshe here as Christe doth Iohn¹ iij. All that is borne of flesshe / that is to wete / the whole mā withlife / soule / body / witte / will / reason & what soeuer he is or doth with in and withe oute / because that these all / & all that is in man / study after the worlde & the flesshe. Call flesshe therfore whatsoeuer (as longe as we are with oute the sprite of God) we thinke or speke of God / of faith of good workes & of spirituall matters. Call flesshe also all workes which are done with oute grace & with oute the workinge of the sprite / how soeuer good / holy and spirituall they seme to be / as thou mayst proue by the .v. Chapter vnto the Galathy ās / where Paul numbreth worshepinge of ydols / ⟨p. ccix⟩witchecrafte / enuy and hate amonge the dedes of the flesh / & by the .viij. vnto the Romayns / where he sayth that the lawe by the reason of the flesshe is weake which is not vnderstond of vnchastite only / but of all synnes / & most specially / of vnbelefe which is a vyce most spirituall and grounde of all synnes.
